Watch an incredible tribute concert compiled for one of the world’s most inspirational artists, Canadian singer and songwriter, and legend in her own time, Joni Mitchell. Singers and musicians including Brandi Carlile, Glen Hansard, Diana Krall, James Taylor, Chaka Khan, Emmylou Harris, Norah Jones and Kris Kristofferson are just some of the stars in a specially selected cast who perform songs from Joni Mitchell’s life and career, across all 19 of her studio albums. Captured over two nights in November 2018 from the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in Los Angeles, the show includes behind-the-scenes interviews and a now-rare public appearance from Joni Mitchell herself.

Lucas Hedges and Julia Roberts give terrific performances in this intimate drama about family and addiction. Nineteen year-old recovering addict Ben Burns (Hedges) unexpectedly shows up at his family’s suburban home on Christmas Eve morning.

Over a turbulent 24 hours, new truths are revealed and a mother’s undying love for her son is tested as she does everything in her power to keep him safe.

Ali Davis (Henson) is a successful sports agent who’s consistently boxed out by her male colleagues. When Ali is passed up for a well-deserved promotion, she questions what else she needs to do to succeed in a man’s world… until she gains the ability to hear men’s thoughts. What Men Want is the latest comedy from director Adam Shankman (Hairspray) and producers Will Packer and James Lopez (Girls Trip).

Set in the 1990s, Marvel Studios’ “Captain Marvel” is an all-new adventure from a previously unseen period in the history of the Marvel Cinematic Universe that follows the journey of Carol Danvers as she becomes one of the universe’s most powerful heroes.

Stella Grant (Haley Lu Richardson) is every bit a seventeen-year-old...she's attached to her laptop and loves her best friends. But unlike most teenagers, she spends much of her time living in a hospital as a cystic fibrosis patient. Her life is full of routines, boundaries and self-control – all of which is put to the test when she meets an impossibly charming fellow patient named Will Newman (Cole Sprouse). There's an instant flirtation, though restrictions dictate that they must maintain a safe distance between them. As their connection intensifies, so does the temptation to throw the rules out the window and embrace that attraction. Further complicating matters is Will's potentially dangerous rebellion against his ongoing medical treatment. Stella gradually inspires Will to live life to the fullest, but can she ultimately save the person she loves when even a single touch is off limits?

After the roaring success of 2017’s GET OUT, Jordan Peele hits us with another provocative helping of horror. US chronicles a family’s trip away to an idyllic beach house in Santa Cruz, California. Lupita Nyong’o (12 YEARS A SLAVE) plays mother Adelaide, who knew the seaside venue as a child, and Winston Duke (BLACK PANTHER) plays her husband, Gabe. As night draws in, four mysterious people appear, holding hands in the driveway of their lodging. They’re not just any intruders, but are grotesque and menacing doppelgängers of the family themselves. Tranquillity gives way panic and fear, and the family break descends into nightmarish uncertainty. Who are these creatures? Where did they come from? What do they want?

Brutal, callous and passionate from its opening sequence, Peckinpah’s elegiac film rewrites John Ford’s western mythology by looking at the Old West from the point of view of the marginalised outlaws rather than the law-abiding settlers.

On the 75th anniversary of the real-life POW escape from the Stalag Luft III prison in German-occupied Poland, Dan Snow hosts a commemorative evening at the Eventim Apollo in London, which will be broadcast live as a pre-show across UK cinemas, followed by a screening of The Great Escape.
John Sturges’ dramatisation of the true story of a group of Allied POWs who successfully escaped from Stalag Luft III in Upper Silesia in March 1944 is arguably the best Second World War adventure film ever made.
A host of big-name stars mesh beautifully in this meticulous recreation of the legendary escape. Although this is a film about courage, Sturges wisely takes a low-key approach, leavened with humour, rather than allowing the cast to indulge in macho antics.
